Scheherazade New

Scheherazade New is a serif family with support for Arabic, Latin, and Latin-ext subsets, giving it a broad multilingual range. Available in four weights from 400 to 700, it offers enough variation for hierarchy while keeping the style restrained and text-focused. The name suggests an editorial, literary character, and the serif classification points to a traditional, structured presence. With only normal styles, Scheherazade New is straightforward to deploy in continuous reading settings where clarity and consistent rhythm matter.

Scheherazade New works well for multilingual editorial design, long-form reading, scholarly layouts, and any project that needs Arabic and Latin text to feel visually aligned. Its weight range supports emphasis, navigation, and section contrast without straying far from a coherent text voice. Pair it with simpler, low-contrast companions that do not compete for attention, and keep spacing and hierarchy disciplined so the family’s structured character stays clear. It is especially useful when the same system must handle multiple scripts gracefully.
